Communication and Networking These documents describe Windows 2000 enhanced support for the Windows Internet Name Service (WINS), Domain Name System (DNS), and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), and explain how these services simplify name and address allocation.
These documents explain Windows 2000 support for remote access using Virtual Private Networking (VPN). VPN uses such services as Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP), Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP), and IP Security (IPSec) to allow a user to securely connect to services and content available on one network from a different network. This section contains documents explaining how the Windows 2000 Server operating system enables the development of feature-rich telephony applications, using the Web Telephony Engine and the Windows Telephony Applications Programming Interface (TAPI) version 3.0 Documents in this section describe network traffic management, including Windows 2000 support for Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) and Quality of Service (QoS). File and Print Services File and print servers are the workhorses of every network. That does not mean, however, that they can be taken for granted—on the contrary, successful network operating systems must incorporate the latest technological advances into these fundamental services. To retain the competitive position established by Microsoft® Windows NT® Server 4.0, Windows® 2000 Server has updated its file system, indexing and search capabilities, storage services, and printer functions using state-of-the art technology. In addition, file and print operations are now integrated both with an organization’s internal intranet and with the external Internet. You gain new functionality when you add Windows 2000 file and print servers to an existing network environment, and then gain more features when you upgrade—at your own pace—to a Windows 2000 network.All of the changes to file and print services have been made with both network administrators and application developers in mind. Windows 2000 makes managing file and print services more efficient, and the open architecture of Windows 2000 Server is designed to facilitate third-party developers’ efforts to provide additional functionality in response to evolving business needs. It is important that administrators understand how Active Directory and the printing service work together and how to manage the interaction between these two services. This paper explains that relationship. The Microsoft® Distributed File System (Dfs) is a network server component that makes it easier for you to find and manage data on your network. Dfs is a means for uniting files on different computers into a single name space, making it easy to build a single, hierarchical view of multiple file servers and file server shares on your network. This document presents a technical overview of Dfs and explains how this technology can help you manage your data more efficiently. ____________________________________________ For comments send an

The Windows® 2000 operating system contains new features and enhancements that affect storage applications. This paper gives an overview of these changes to the storage subsystem, and provides storage application developers with the information they need in order to support and exploit storage-related features in the applications they design. In general, Windows 2000 allows administrators to more easily control a greater number of servers and workstations. At the same time, new features in Windows 2000—for instance, using Active Directory for automated software distribution and locating, connecting to, and using printers—will dramatically reduce the cost of supporting users. In installations where dedicated domain controllers and associated resource servers are not well utilized, a new architecture for organizing resources will actually reduce hardware requirements, freeing up expensive server resources for other uses. This white paper describes 15 of the most important, and common, administrative tasks and details exactly where cost savings can be expected when migrating from Windows NT 4.0 to Windows 2000.
This white paper provides an overview of current trends in the storage industry and the business challenges related to storage management. It then describes the storage management features in the Windows 2000 Server operating system, and explains how they address modern business computing storage requirements.
